Hobo With a Shotgun

What is there to say about this movie that hasn't already been said...
No, can't think of a damned thing so I'll just have to re-iterate wat has already been said...
This is brutal, bloody, gory Grindhouse at it's finest. This is definitely no "Goatman Murders". There's no ginger, fun-fur pubed circumcised weiner in this one, the only penis we have to see has just been shot to shreds by a shotgun wielding Rutger Hauer in one of his finest "outsider" roles for a long, long time!

There are so many inventive killings in such a rapid succession that it is impossible to catalogue them at a single viewing. We watch as Hauer's Hobo switches from incredulity to disgust and hatred and, finally, to action as he tries to buy a lawnmower in a pawn shop. Then the deaths come quick and thick as "The Drake" rouses the citizens into hunting the homeless just to get the Hobo who beat his son.

Molly Dunsworth, who plays Abby, puts in a sterling performance for someone who is being splattered with blood for so much of the film. She provides the drive for the Hobo's protective "justice"

A fun-filled, exciting film for all the family, well maybe not unless your family's like good ol' Charlie Manson's!
